Long live the impact of Prof. Conrad Johnson who not only molded a great stage band with Kashmere but he had a profound effect in the whole Htown music scene thur the Conrad Johnson Big Band and other musical endeavors! Swing on as you R.I.P. Prof!★♡O:-)

"Music teacher Conrad O. Johnson attended an Otis Redding concert in 1967 and was inspired to translate the style of the concert into a program he could sustain at the high school in order to create opportunities for his student musicians. The Kashmere Stage Band was born."
